| Publisher Description: In his latest fast-paced travelogue, Jason Smart visits two of the world's most vibrant and action-packed continents: Africa and Asia. Beginning his journey in Djibouti, he visits the lowest point in Africa before heading off on a whirlwind tour that takes him to Mauritius, Madagascar, Namibia, South Africa, Tunisia, Iran, South Korea, Mongolia, China and the Maldives. Along the way, he sees lemurs and chameleons, finds out about corruption in paradise, enjoys the hospitality of Iran and learns that abseiling kits are standard-issue room equipment in South Korean hotels. In China, he walks on the Great Wall, in Tunisia, he experiences a city under lockdown and, due to a booking error, ends up in one of Johannesburg's most notorious districts where he sees the Southern Hemisphere's tallest slum. His trip ends in the Indian Ocean, where he gets to see some of the hidden underbelly of crime and litter in the Maldives. Jason Smart is the published author of eleven other books. He lives in Jakarta with his wife and two cats. |
